Homecoming is more than just a football game on Saturday. It's a week's worth of activities and school spirit on campus and beyond.

Here's what you can do during Homecoming Week for the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

Tuesday

9 a.m.: Business judging begins for the annual Paint the Town Red competition. Businesses in Acadiana show their Ragin' Cajuns pride by decorating their offices, and folks from the university visit to judge.

7 p.m.: Teams and individuals can take part in a massive campus scavenger hunt. No preregistration is required. Meet on the Student Union Porch.

Wednesday

8 a.m.: School judging begins for Paint the Town Red. Like area businesses, schools across the region show off their spirit for the university.

11 a.m. to 2 p.m.: Wear Ragin' Cajuns gear and get free lunch from the University Program Council for the "Wear Red, Get Fed & Campus Cupboard Donation Drive" on Boucher Street. You can drop off non-perishable food items for local pantries.

7 p.m.: Escape Room in the Student Union ballroom. Use clues to figure out how to escape.
